    Explanation
    To ensure proper functioning of the high pressure relief control on the 51AF-4 valve, it is necessary to adjust the pressure reducing control (CRD) 90AF-8 valve to a pressure that is 5 psi above the normal operating pressure. This adjustment helps to create a sufficient pressure differential between the two valves, allowing the relief control to effectively regulate the pressure and prevent any potential overpressure situations.

    (416) According to the troubleshooting guide, Which component has failed if fuel is bypassed during a fueling operation?

    • Solenoid failed to deenergize

    • Solenoid failed to energize

    • CV-flow control

    • Low-pressure relief control

    Correct Answer
    A. Solenoid failed to energize
    Explanation
    If fuel is bypassed during a fueling operation, it means that the solenoid failed to energize. The solenoid is responsible for controlling the flow of fuel, and if it fails to energize, it will not allow fuel to pass through, resulting in fuel bypassing the system. Therefore, the correct answer is solenoid failed to energize.

    (417) What type steel is used in the control tubing of the type III system?

    • Copper

    • Carbon

    • Galvanized

    • Stainless Steel

    Correct Answer
    A. Stainless Steel
    Explanation
    Stainless steel is the correct answer for the type of steel used in the control tubing of the type III system. Stainless steel is a durable and corrosion-resistant material that is commonly used in various industries, including oil and gas. It is preferred for control tubing as it can withstand high pressure and temperature conditions, ensuring the safe and efficient operation of the system. Copper, carbon, and galvanized steel are not suitable for control tubing in this context as they do not possess the same level of corrosion resistance and strength as stainless steel.

    (418) At what differential pressure must the receiving strainer in the type III system be cleaned?

    • 3 psi

    • 10 psi

    • 15 psi

    • 20 psi

    Correct Answer
    A. 10 psi
    Explanation
    The receiving strainer in a type III system must be cleaned at a differential pressure of 10 psi. This means that when the pressure difference between the inlet and outlet of the strainer reaches 10 psi, it is necessary to clean the strainer to maintain proper functioning of the system. Cleaning the strainer helps remove any debris or particles that may have accumulated, ensuring that the system continues to operate efficiently.

    (418) The 40-28G bypass valve opens and fuel bypasses the receiving separators when fuel is received from a cross-country pipeline on the type III system. The differential pressure causing this action occurs when

    • 15 psi is sensed across the receiving separator

    • 15 psi is sensed across the orifice plate on the receiving separator

    • 10 psi is sensed across the receiving separator

    • 10 psi is sensed across the orifice plate on the receiving separator

    Correct Answer
    A. 15 psi is sensed across the receiving separator
    Explanation
    When 15 psi is sensed across the receiving separator, the 40-28G bypass valve opens and allows fuel to bypass the receiving separators. This occurs because the differential pressure of 15 psi indicates that there is a high pressure on the receiving side, which triggers the bypass valve to open and relieve the excess pressure by diverting the fuel flow.

    (418) Once the 40-27G filter separator valve has closed due to high differential pressure, what must be done to get the valve to operate again?

    • Reset the control panel

    • Clean the receiving strainer

    • Manually reset the 40-28G

    • Manually reset the CDHS-3A

    Correct Answer
    A. Manually reset the CDHS-3A
    Explanation
    To get the 40-27G filter separator valve to operate again after it has closed due to high differential pressure, the CDHS-3A must be manually reset.

    (418) A gallons per minute displacement meter is used in the receiving line of a type III system. Which type does it use?

    • 600 Positive

    • 1200 Positive

    • 600 Non-positive

    • 1200 Non-positive

    Correct Answer
    A. 1200 Non-positive
    Explanation
    A gallons per minute displacement meter measures the flow rate of liquid in a system. In a type III system, the receiving line is where the liquid is being received. The fact that the displacement meter is used in the receiving line indicates that it is measuring the incoming flow of liquid. The term "non-positive" suggests that the meter is not measuring a positive flow rate, but rather a flow rate that is either zero or negative. Therefore, the correct answer is 1200 Non-positive, indicating that the displacement meter used in the receiving line of a type III system measures a non-positive flow rate of 1200 gallons per minute.
